Tips
- Prawn Perfection: Always ensure prawns are fresh and properly cleaned. Pat them dry before cooking to achieve a beautiful golden sear.
- Noodle Know-How: Cook noodles just until al dente and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. This prevents them from becoming mushy when stir-frying.
- Garlic Alert: Be vigilant when sautéing garlic - 30 seconds is all you need to release its flavor without burning.
- Heat Control: Use medium-high heat for that perfect stir-fry technique, ensuring prawns cook quickly and evenly.
- Sauce Secrets: Mix chili paste and soy sauce thoroughly to create a uniform, flavor-packed coating for your prawns and noodles.
- Garnish Game: Fresh chopped spring onions add a burst of color and a crisp, fresh flavor that elevates the entire dish.
- Serve Immediately: This dish is best enjoyed hot and fresh, straight from the wok to the plate for maximum flavor and texture.
